Character Quotes
-
I personally like to talk to people when I'm not doing a scene, still acting as if I'm in Gotham when I'm on set because I don't really like to break character, since I sometimes get distracted. I may get distracted when I'm talking to people and having fun; then I have to check myself.

I want to try not to repeat myself. But then I seem to do it continuously in my films. It's not something I make any effort to do.

But every decision I make is how to bring those characters forward.

When I first heard 'A Christmas Story, the musical,' I thought, Oh, that could be really good. It just felt like it fit.
